    Hello,

    I left my zz plant in the care of a friend for about 8 months (I was travelling). I left her with instructions to water about once a month and other than that to really leave it alone. Its now back in my care but it has 4 new stems which are about a foot longer than the rest of the plant and the leaves are spaced very far apart. So it looks really weird. I'm just wondering what to do about the stems - do i cut them back? Or take out the whole stem? The plants looks a bit odd. I've tried to attach a picture. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Laura
